INSANE: Prismatic evolutions surprise box has more than tripled in price at online retailers here s why | Rare Historical Photos

Umbreon ex and Sylveon foil promo cards.

Last week, as I went on my rounds updating our where to buy guides on Pokemon Prismatic Evolutions stock, I started to see the Surprise Box jump up in price. I don't just mean a minor price hike, I mean this box has skyrocketed in price. Online retailers used whiplash; it was super effective. First it was just Walmart, then Amazon caught wind, and now it seems every online retailer wants a piece of the Pokepie. The question is, why? Why, after weeks of being out in the wild, has this particular Prismatic Evolutions product suddenly garnered enough interest to warrant a $100 tag, over the $23 MSRP?

Singles, my dear. And the perceived rarity that a certain tiny detail this Pokemon Prismatic Evolutions Surprise Box adds. Turns out that this product for one of the best card games does have a little surprise in it, aside from the general obscurity of its contents.
